Playing with backups and their back up against the playoff elimination wall, the Philadelphia Eagles beat the Giants 17-10. The Birds overcame injuries to Michael Vick and Jeremy Maclin, who did not play, as well as the mental breakdown of Desean Jackson's 50 yard taunting penalty to beat the New York Giants AGAIN in the Meadowlands.

LeSean McCoy found little room to run, and QB backup Vince Young did just enough to lead the Birds offense to 17 points. The defense played well,... Read More

The Phillies grabbed utilityman Ty Wigginton from the Colorado Rockies in exchange for a player to be named later. Wigginton was a .242 hitter with 15 homers and 47 RBIs in 130 games last season. He played third and first base, left field and right field. The 34-year-old Wigginton has hit .265 with 158 homers and 548 RBIs in 1,190 games in 10 seasons with the New York Mets, Pittsburgh, Tampa Bay, Houston, Baltimore and Colorado. Wigginton was an All-Star in 2010 with the Baltimore Orioles.Read More

The Flyers have been impressive on the road this season posting a 6-0-1 road record, but at home they are only 4-3-2. Currently behind the Penguins in the Atlantic Division, the Flyers need to make more out of the Philadelphia home ice advantage.

That needs to pick up, especially if the Flyers hope to eventually put some distance on rivals in the Atlantic Division. They trail the Penguins by two points in the standings.

The Phillies front office has been busy in the off-season and has landed an experienced closer to replace Ryan Madson. Jonathan Papelbon, the six year closer for the Boston Red Sox will come to Philadelphia in a four year deal worth $50 million. Papelbon reached 200 saves faster than any other pitcher in the majors while in the highly competitive American League East.

In Papelbon, the Phillies have added another good clubhouse guy who should gel with this team. Ultimately... Read More

DeSean Jackson was deactivated for Sunday's loss to Arizona because he failed to attend a team meeting a day earlier. Initially, it was thought that Jackson simply overslept.

Jackson’s explanation on Monday didn't mention anything about sleeping too late. A team source said Sunday that the missed meeting wasn't the first incident of the season with Jackson.
Michael Vick suffered broken ribs in the loss and his status for Sunday night against the Giants is uncertain.Read More

Nine games into the season, and the Philadelphia Eagles are 3-6. Andy Reid promoted Juan Castillo from offensive line coach to defensive coordinator, and now the defense has gone from subpar last year, to awful this year.

The Eagles have blown five fourth-quarter leads. Sunday’s loss to the Cardinals and fourth quarter collapse was tied to penalties, mental errors, and physical mistakes.

Regarding the defense, Andy Reid says we have to fix it. Castillo... Read More

Why aren’t the Eagles winning? Is it Andy Reid? The defense? Offense? Some say it points to Michael Vick.

Lesser quarterbacks have more TDs than Vick’s 11. He stands in the middle of the pack or worse in nearly every major passing statistic. Vick has been another Eagle whose play has been decent but ultimately not good enough to win. Big plays have been missing.

Vick is completing 62 percent of his passes and has been more consistent than a year... Read More

Philadelphia boxing great, Joe Frazier died on Monday after being diagnosed with liver cancer about a month ago. He was 67. Smokin' Joe Frazier won Olympic Gold on his way to becoming one of boxing's all time heavyweight stars. Early in his career, Joe Frazier would train in a Philadelphia slaughterhouse, punching meat like a heavy bag, a workout made famous later in Rocky movies.

Frazier was smaller than most heavyweight but compensated with exceptional strength and stamina. ... Read More

This is the Eagles team most Philadelphia football fans expected to see from the start of the season. On Sunday night the Birds ran a stampede over the top ranked Dallas defense on their way to a 34 to 7 blowout. Just a few weeks ago, many fans were convinced Andy Reid would be run out of town after the team's slow start. Now Andy is getting high praise for his perfect 13-0 record after bye weeks and the fact that the team is looking like it is beginning to gel as a real force in the... Read More
